Nobody said anything about combining alcohol and weed.

I said that if you compared alcohol and junk food consumption against weed consumption, you will find that alcohol and junk food (again, not in combination) are objectively worse.

I added marijuana in brackets because I didn’t want some idiot to come and argue how cocaine would be worse.

Depending on the drug (marijuana), your alcohol and junk food consumption would be objectively worse.

Edit: Apparently people lack basic comprehension.

get parents to actually be parents and teach their kids about the pitfalls of social media

Also not possible

Are we going to completely ignore the absolute insanity of arresting someone for cheating on an exam.

You’d get killed on the interstate on one of those,

You guys in Illinois are crazy though. I learned very quickly how much that 55 MPH limit is a guideline and not a hard limit.

Speed restrictions.

Kei trucks were designed for use in dense Japanese cities, which is why they also work in European cities. They are nimble but have a low top speed. You’re not going 70 mph around a street corner for instance.

It would work in places like NYC for the same reasons, but remember that most of the USA is suburban or rural. You need vehicles that are capable of going fast if you’re going to get on a highway.

A possible workaround is to have a separate class for these, like mopeds or scooters, which are road legal but are not highway legal.

Perhaps the AI is smarter in this case for answering based on learned history.

You forget for example that there’s an overlap between the dumbest humans and the smartest bears.

I mean there’s probably a nonzero percentage of the population that will struggle with this question too.

I’m pretty sure he’s going to roll back just about everything Biden has done.

Funny how we accept that it takes 4 years for Biden to roll back Trump’s nonsense one at a time but we expect Trump to roll back every single thing Biden’s has done right away.

It’s not whataboutism, it’s hypocrisy.

Remember when the Patriot Act was a thing?

Surveillance of your citizens isn’t a CCP only thing.

China is the largest producer of EVs in the world by far (the next country on the list, Germany doesn’t even come close). In fact, China produces more EVs than the next 4 top producers combined.

The US is running scared because there is absolutely no way they can compete, unless they severely handicap the competition.

So, instead of free competition in Western markets, we have coddled American companies that are “too big to fail” that will continue producing obsolete technologies. If we haven’t already, we’ll start to see Boeing’s product issues in American cars.

Could you enrol in an online program and take courses remotely?

Alternatively does the licensing organization offer the option to complete an exam to demonstrate competency?

Well sure, but you have to also remember that there is an entire country that bases its existence on the fact that their god gave them the right to that land, even if it means that nobody else can live there.

Exactly this. When Portugal decriminalized drugs, they saw a decrease in usage-related deaths, drug crimes, and an increase in rehabilitation. Overall, there has been a decline in drug use as a result.

Since we have a partially socialized healthcare system, there’s no concern about going broke due to choking on kinder eggs.

Honorary Europeans but also honorary Americans. Our labour rights are more in line with the US than with Europe.

I’m not too sure how many independents will be able to afford dumping a quarter of a million to replace all their projector screens

Don’t worry, thanks to this amazing thing called capitalism a big chain will happily buy out those struggling independents at a fraction of their actual worth.

I grew up on a farm and we used to make homemade butter. I’ve lived off the farm for more than 20 years and I have not made butter since I left. The minor difference in cost is simply not worth the effort.

Mount the owner.
